Eames Creams Opponent

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

We just saw a player with barely under 50,000 all in on a {J-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop against John Eames. Eames held middle set with {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} while his opponent had {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} for top pair and an inside straight draw. The {5-Spades} turn and {K-Spades} river provided no help for the player and Eames took him out and built his stack to 153,000.
